Late try earns Newcastle narrow victory against Biarritz in Challenge Cup

A late try from George Wacokecoke saw Newcastle snatch a dramatic 17-13 Challenge Cup win at Biarritz.

Following a lengthy TMO referral with the clock beyond 80 minutes, Wacokecoke was awarded the score after replays showed he managed to get the ball to ground inside the right corner post.

Earlier, Sam Stuart had seen his seventh-minute score cancelled out by home flanker Tornike Jalaghonia.
